ABSTRACT
The adaptation of the user interface is present in several areas, reaching to embrace virtual learning environments. One possible source of adaptation could be based on the student's cultural profile. People from different countries have different cultures and interact with the user interface differently, prefer different graphic designs, and have different expectations and behavior patterns. Therefore, the user interface should be adapted to the needs of each geographical location to provide optimal user experience. This paper presents a preliminary adapting model for interface according to the cultural profile of the user / student, specifically in a ubiquitous environment for collaborative learning.

Adaptation in virtual environments: conceptual framework and user models
When interacting in a virtual environment, users are confronted with a number of interaction techniques. These interaction techniques may complement each other, but in some circumstances can be used interchangeably. Because of this situation, it is ...
Investigating the Possibility of Adaptation and Personalization in Virtual Environments
UMAP '09: Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation, and Personalization: formerly UM and AHThe complex nature of virtual environments customarily hinders users to interact in a natural, intuitive and optimal way. Different user characteristics are hardly taken into account when designing 3D user interfaces for virtual environments. We ...
Context-aware interactive content adaptation
MobiSys '06: Proceedings of the 4th international conference on Mobile systems, applications and servicesAutomatic adaptation of content for mobile devices is a challenging problem because optimal adaptation often depends on the usage semantics of content, as well as the context of users (e.g., screen size of device being used, network connectivity, ...
